2026 L&D Leadership Summit (Sydney)

26th & 27th August
Waterview at Bicentenial Park
Forward Motion – Leveraging learning as a catalyst for organisational change

Learning and development are powerful catalysts for change in shaping a future-ready workforce. To shape change, it also requires strategic planning, rethinking, recorganising, collaborating and knowledge-sharing. These elements are not just important—they are a fundamental part of human behaviour, capable of inspiring change, transforming vision into reality, and driving progress.

The 2026 L&D Leadership Summit (Sydney) program invites learning, OD and capability leaders to examine areas such as building a learning-centred organisation, uplifting workforce capability, empowering people to adapt and grow, digital literacy, utilising AI to enhance workplace learning, developing leaders, designing a learning and capability strategy that is relevant to the current and future needs of the business, maximising the return on investment for L&D spending, and more.
